How to back up and restore your router
configuration
Why do I need to back up my router configuration? As with any valuable
data, you should back up your router configuration. Your router might contain
many customized settings. Those settings would be lost if you reset your router
to its factory defaults, and you would need to re-enter all of them manually. If
you back up your router configuration, restoring settings is easy.
NOTE
You can only back up the router configuration locally (not
remotely).
